New line \n in event & alert description support

[gavinsmith1]

Does the event or alert description field support the use of the \n or \\n or some type of new line character.

The field just displays anything I place in as text.

Have also created a event rule to combine multiple event fields to compose a more meaningful description which does not work either.

It creates one long message.

e.g.

${MESSAGE1} \n ${MESSAGE} \\n ${MESSAGE3} \n\n ${MESSAGE4}

Build: Jakarta

Is this by design or is there specific character combination that is required.

Thanks

Try with

${MESSAGE1} + '\n'+ ${MESSAGE}

Thanks for reply Deepak. I tried that with no luck.

Here's what I added.

Event rule:

${VIOLATED_MEASURE_METRIC_DESCRIPTION} + '\n' + ${VIOLATION_MESSAGE_1} + '\\n' + ${VIOLATION_MESSAGE_1} + '<BR>'

Alert description:

Checking the table params i see this is define as string. Maybe it doesn't support or the UI can't interrupt the '\n' character?

btw: Am very new to SN.

Hello,

you can use "<br\>" to make it in next line.

Ex message: "First line.Second line"

you should enter the string as "First line.<br\> <br\>second line"

output:

First line

Second Line

Note:Please accept the sution if it works for you.
